when you do what it takes to matchmaking, it becomes very annoying to join games two minutes from the end with scores of 25 against 5.
This seems obvious to me to block access to two minutes from the end. sorry i'm not english (google translate)

Quite a great patch this is! That said, I was looking forward to trying out a new mech or map, and it didn't happen. Aw.

Also, I thought you would implement the roll bonus (when you play several matches in a row on one server).

No fuzzy dice_   D;

Also, i think the bezerker nerf was unneeded, becasue since the patch with improved hit detection, i have found it fairly easy to be killed.

The mobility and damage was balanced by the fact that the fuel regen rate was like a snail when compared to mechs like the reaper.

This basically meant that if you stay in the air too long or boost to far, then you're dead.

That boost speed nerf is... it'll destroy my playing style.
I depend ALOT on my boost speed, and I have 2 internals that amplify it even more.

WHY THE F__K ARE YOU DOING THIS DEVS
What were you thinking..
I'll be nothing more then a slow turtle after this patch.

No internals affect boost speed anymore.  Power Surger and Evasive Device only affect walk/run speed as of like a month after Ascension.

Sure, losing boost speed sucks, but I hardly think it'll be the straw that broke the Predator's back.  Aren't you excited for a buffed EOCP_

I am veeeeery worried for Raider now.
I LOVE the Corsair change. The mirv is receiving a 14% (1/7) nerf to its damage per hit, which (while certainly not negligible) isn't huge. But a fire rate increase of 36% (more than 1/3) is. As an added bonus, it will make one-shotting certain light mechs much more difficult, which is good in my book: being killed without any time to react feels cheap, and I say this having been on the receiving end AND as a raider player.
Also, the 5% damage nerf on the KLA is negligible, meaning that it basically got a free 1/3 fire rate / DPS bonus, which helps make it less of a useless projectile compared to the mirv.

A question would be, do we get refunds the difference in price of recent purchases when the price is reduced_  (like within a week or so_) or are we just shafted because we didn't know better_

Also, what if we already own the same paint scheme on multiple mechs_  Do we get any kind of recompensation_  (example:  I JUST bought the red paint scheme for my scout, and I already owned it for my vanguard, do I get a refund based on that or is it just buyers remorse_)

@Wraithknight

I have the clear skin red on my Predator and Grenadier...
I've also bought the Tiger Yellow for two or three mechs...

Of course most of this was a month or two ago.  Even with hindsight, I feel content w/ my purchase (I got to use those camos all this time rather than wait for this patch).  

Your situation may be different based on how recent your purchases were_  If you feel slighted, PM ZamboniChaos_  

At any rate, I do plan to spend more Meteor credits as soon as the patch goes through!

Instead of lowering the Assaults armor, lowering the Berserkers armor, and decreasing the subgun damage, theres an easy way to balance these and the C-RT/Scout. LOWER the TOW damage :) thanks for listening..Dont want all cookie cutter mechs for no reason..there so much alike as it is. The Three mechs are the most complained about for one reason and its not the berserker ability or armor or the sub gun. This will also help lots with the scanner (it does what it's supposed to)as the biggest problem is catching a TOW as you come around a corner..

The article says to contact ZC by PM or email if you think you should be compensated for having multiple purchases of the same skin or similar.

I dunno who you talk to, but most people I play with feel that the SMC is too strong right now.  Flack scout is at a decent place right now, but maybe that is because air combat is good and A mechs are easy to kill.

Scanner should be removed from the game.  It makes flanking impossible and it doesn't tell you when you are being scanned.

So to solve your problem, don't boost around corners and don't use scanner.
